For this poll, let just keep it within the U.S. I think the World poll would have too many choices.

It will probably be Alaska, but I chose the Midwestern U.S. just in case the big one decides to go this year.

I think we're going through preshocks for a big one in IL. It's been building a long time and a seismologist on Monday's night's news said it's coming here and time to prepare is now.
